Aurora NE-100
Technical Specifications

Using a single wavelength LED light source

By collaborating with globally renowned atmospheric research institutes, Acoem provides the scientific community with the most advanced commercially available nephelometers.

The Aurora NE-100 is equipped with a three wavelength light source. Any one of the following wavelengths can be selected:

450 nm (blue) for fine & ultra fine particulates
(wood fires, automobiles)
525 nm (green) for visibility
635 nm (red) for large particulates (e.g. pollen, sea salt). Note: If using the 635 nm wavelength, Acoem recommends adding the wide bandwidth PMT option for minimal noise.

Benefits

Internal sample heater with temperature or RH control, which you can enable to eliminate the effects of humidity
Internal sample pump & flow sensor for accurate flow control with the option for volumetric flow control
Simplified automatic calibration using internal valves, ideal for remote locations
Fully programmable span check, zero check, span adjust, zero adjust or full calibration
24 VDC operation (100 W max with supplied mains power supply)
Fully integrated data logging of all parameters with storage to either USB or SD card for many years
Free Airodis™ demo version supplied on USB or via internet
Storage & automatic backup of configuration & calibration files
Increased light source intensity & reduced truncation angle, lower instrument noise & decreased wall scattering from internal reflections compared to previous generation Aurora 1000
LED light source is guaranteed not to fail within 3 years & often exceeds 5 years lifetime
Heat generated by the light source is reduced by using high efficiency LEDs & fans, minimising changes in sample RH
LEDs emit light at a specific wavelength eliminating the need for band pass filters.
